Scroll down the page. Apparently it is going to be attached with M. Night Shyalaman's The Happening. Very interesting because this is being billed prominently as "M. NIGHT SHYALAMAN'S FIRST R-RATED MOVIE EVAH!!!1!!" I assume this will also be attached with The Dark Knight. At least I hope so.

AWESOME stuff and that is indeed Christopher Lee's voice there as Dooku! And Padme fans rejoice, there's a brief glimpse of her in the trailer.

Is it August yet???

Update II: You can also download the trailer for free from iTunes.

Update III: The trailer is now on the splash page for starwars.com. It will be attached to The Incredible Hulk this weekend.
